I predict Nadal will finally crack because of old age and pressure from Djokovic. I just hope Federer won't ruin things like he did in 2011. Please be in Nadal's half every time.

I have none besides Djoker winning some stuff and Fognini being a factor in some stuff and I predict Nadal won't win RG this year but let me reminisce about a match...

Rome 2013: Less than a year ago Gulbis was destroying Nadal and with a first pump down 0-5 Nadal finally turned the momentum of the match. It was an incredibly inspiring match. What will Gulbis be up to this coming clay season?

What I want to happen:

Djokovic defeats Nadal in three finals: Monte Carlo, Madrid, and Rome. H2H is now 22-21 Nadal. Djokovic needs one more win to even things out and bring his streak to 7-0.

Nadal and Djokovic are playing an epic final at Roland Garros. It's 5-4 40-15 in the fifth with Nadal serving for the match. Djokovic makes this face. Nadal serves it out wide to Novak's forehand, who just slaps a cross court return winner. 40-30. Nadal works the next point and hits the winning smash, but stumbles into the net in the process. Djokovic points at Nadal. Deuce. Djokovic wins the next point and breaks back. 5-5.

After a comfortable hold, he seizes a 30-40 lead on Nadal's service game. Match point. Novak rips a backhand down the line and Nadal can only watch it sail past, in dismay. A resounding roar is heard in Court Philippe Chatrier as Djokovic rips his shirt.

What will probably happen:

Nadal wins 2 of the 3 Masters and Roland Garros.

What I want to happen;
Djokovic should win first 2 Masters that too against Nadal and in RG - Djoker should loose in 2nd round that too with 100+ rank player :)

IMO : Nadal will win 2 Masters & RG fir sure

:lol: The intense drama and comedy of your scenario would make up for the tragedy of Nadal making all those finals. I think I can live with that :lol: Also just imagine of reaction of Nadal fans if all that happened :lol:

Any combination of Gulbis, Dmitrov, Dolgopolov, Tsonga for Masters and Federer/ Novak/Murray for FO.

His form this year so far is not as good as last year. Maybe on clay he plays better because he has more time to set up that forehand.

That would be more than awesome. The justice would have finally be served after that disgrace with Pascal Maria last year.

It was Pascal Maria last year. I got a feeling, you'll have someone else to blame after this year's RG, Chico :)

I predict, Nole and Rafa won't win the FO. Something is in the air. I think guys are starting to believe they can beat them. And they will train hard in the clay season.

I feel it's the end of the line for Nadal. He's looked old, old, and older in the last couple of months. He might squeak out Rome, but I see Nole taking the other three and the changing of the guard being complete.

Prediction men's: A lot of guys will slip and fall down and have reddish brown dirt all over their shorts.

Prediction women's: A lot of shrieking and service tosses that are 'juuuuuuuut a bit outside' ('Major League' movie reference). Oh, and service breaks... lots and lots.
 
What I want to happen:

Rafa sweep the clay season

What I think will happen:

MC-Rafa over Roger

Barcelona-Rafa over Ferrer

Relax bro lol. Same thing, different year. Novak has been the favorite for the clay season according to some here for the last 3 years.
